Announced on Wholesome Direct

Lots of offhand talk about the rise of Wholesome gaming in the indie scene but no reference notes so I'm sifting through the 'Wholesome Direct' announcements to actually get a sense of what's going on here.

If I find any other wholesome advertising campaigns I'll either make that its own list or subsect it here. If you know any like that feel free to mention in the comments below.

Holiday December 2020 announcement up to Bird Problems.

I'm skipping the august showcase because there was an explicit notice on that one that it was not paid or sponsored promotion.
